Book Description

December 2002
HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO SAVE THOUSANDS OF LIVES? WOULD YOU BREAK THE LAW? LIE, CHEAT, STEAL? WOULD YOU KILL? After an event that shattered his world, David O’Neal courageously sets out to rebuild his life as a speech writer for Barringston Relief’s wealthy and powerful founder–a man committed to bringing food, medicine, and help to thousands around the world. A man capable of great compassion…and tremendous fury. Then suddenly, David realizes AJ Barringston is much more dangerous than he appears.

DO THE ENDS EVER JUSTIFY THE MEANS? A blanket of peace has settled on much of the world, yet many regions are still bathed in violence and pain. In Somalia, East Africa, a warlord named Mahli and his followers are about to implement a plan that is as insidious as it is deadly–unless they are stopped by Barringston, who is willing to pay the ultimate price.

Pressed by the FBI and CIA to provide evidence of Barringston’s illegal activity, David O’Neal finds himself in a maelstrom of danger and intrigue in this story about one man who will stop at nothing–not even violence–to reach his goal…and another who must decide if wrong can ever be right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking and thoroughly entertaining, November 29, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
How grand that I discovered Alton Gansky! After reading Vanished I quickly ordered everything he has written. Terminal Justice was great...I found it to be full of action, with lifelike characters. It posed some moral questions that added yet another dimension to the book.

The protagonist is a minister whose wife left him for a member of the congregation. He was shattered emotionally, losing both his confidence and a measure of his faith. He was approached to work as a speechwriter and PR advisor for the world's largest charitable organization. As he begins to find meaning in his life again, and form a budding romance with another employee, he begins to suspect that the much admired head of the organization is not all he appears. He is torn between his loyalty to his new friend and benefactor, and his growing fear that the man has overstepped the laws of man and God.

The story line is well drawn. When I read the last page, I was delighted to remember that there is a sequel--Tarnished Image--which I am now devouring!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, tightly written mystery!, June 19, 1999
By A Customer
What an excellent, tighly written, well crafted novel! An excellent turn-pager--I couldn't put it down. Al Gansky's use of the English language was refreshing as well as well done!
